QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Feb 27 2008, 09:32 AM) @ChristWolves, nope. it is not just software or firmware issue, but hardware. macrumors already clarify this. One of the component (from multi-touch trackpad) is similar like iPod touch or iPhoneIt's possible, for students perhaps since it's through RMIT. Speaking of which, can't Apple do something like a software update to the current/old batches so we get the multi touch track pad function too? *grins* |

QUOTE(IvanKang @ Feb 27 2008, 01:10 PM) I think there will be a driver for the macbook to have the multitouch feature in the near future, because the old powerbook g4 didn't have 2 finger right click and once you have installed leopard it seems to have. So for all macbook users, its just the processor and ram that have been upgraded, and well, it sure keeps your battery and your lap happy too! Not in this case. You need the hardware in order to have pinch and rotate to work. It is not about driver or firmware. You can go macrumors or google. They already clarify it.  and larger hdd also for macbook, no more 80GB. starting from 120GB/160GB/250GB(for the black 1) QUOTE(lil twist @ Feb 27 2008, 02:01 PM) btw, the L2 cache is lower lor... got differences between the 3MB L2 cache with 4MB L2 cache?? according to macrumors speculation, penryn got two version. High end Penryn is 6MB L2 cache, whereas low end Penryn is 3MB L2 cache. Although merom (older version macbook processor) is 4MB L2 cache, Penryn got SSE4 that can speed up the instruction application (that's mean it improves the performance as well). In conclusion, Penryn will be faster compare to meromThis post has been edited by allvin: Feb 27 2008, 02:11 PM |

P/S: I'm still waiting despite I need it not so urgently now.  "Intel is planning to replace the Santa Rosa mobile platform with Montevina this June" quote from there.
